WEST ALLIS - The subzero blast followed by a warmup has resulted in shifting of the ground and thus several water main breaks.

On Monday, Jan. 8, three breaks were repaired. They were at 7210 W. Greenfield Ave., at 1939 S. 108th St., and at 12211 W. Cleveland Ave.

Waiting to be done as of Jan. 9 were four more breaks.

One was at 10522 W. Oklahoma Ave. where traffic was routed around the work area.

The break at 9428 W. Cleveland Ave. required shutting off water to Frank Lloyd Wright Intermediate School after classes were finished for the day. After school activities were canceled due to the water outage. Traffic was redirected around the work site.

Water will be shut off to nearby homes Wednesday morning so a break at 74th Street and Bennett Avenue can be repaired. The break area has been barricaded and water has been draining into a catch basin.

No properties are affected by the leak on Washington Street between 84th and 85th streets, so a repair crew will see to the leak after other leaks that do affect homes and businesses are fixed.

One of the properties that was affected was the Wisconsin Athletic Club, 1939 S. 108th St. The repair crew shut off the water Monday evening.
